June 28th, 2006 - A few tips for the Eat Local Challenge

A few tips for the May 2006 Eat Local Challenge is relevant to my One Local Summer participation. Also, the originator of the this challenge, based on my own post wondering about it as well as another participant’s comments said that the point is to start noticing local foods not being totally hyper-committed! Woohoo! This is a sort of challenge I can get into. And, becuase it’s not strict, I actually feel *more* challenged. If there were lots of rules, you get bogged down in them. If the rules are loose, you feel like challenging yourself more: Balsamic vinegar is *okay* so let’s see if I can find something locally made instead to replace it? Whereas if I was told I could NOT use the vinegar, I probably would just do without and not look any further.
